NAF OBBLM - turned a rostered player into a Loner

Post by Darkson »

Played a friendly, and a longbeard leveled up for a normal skill.

Using a mobile I thought I'd selected Guard, but the player was shown as having Dauntless.
So left it.

When next on a PC, I selected the player, selected "Remove Ach. Player Skills", and the player, then tried to remove Dauntless.
Didn't work.
Tried it again, and it removed Dauntless (and added the drop-down for selecting a skill) but it's also added Loner to the player and turned it pink for a "used journey".


Now, I've managed to correct it by "hiring" the player as a Journeyman (with attached skill), but I'm unclear how I managed to turn a rostered player into a JM in the first place.

Any ideas?

I would guess that you forgot to select the upper "OK" after picking the admin task (common user error, happened to me also).

So the admin action stayed on the first one which is "Unhire journeyman", turning a regular player into an journeyman when you select the lower "OK" (even if the player has never been a journeyman, OBBLM does not know this).

In my installation, i renamed the upper button to "Choose action" and the lower one to "Submit change" to avoid this confusion.

There isn't an upper "OK" on the admin tool.

Ah so they updated it to automatically change the lower part on change of the upper selection. I'm on an much older version.

Maybe you just clicked too fast or hit OK before you changed the action ;)
